Got a joint of pork for today's dinner. Never quite managed though to master the crackling. There's loads of different options on how to do it but don't know what's what with them all.

Anybody got a foolproof way of getting that perfect crispy crackling?

Score it, salt it, roast as normal with the pork but then cut it off whilst the pork rests then put it back in on a higher heat.

If it's not already scored - then do so with a very sharp knife. Boil up the kettle and pour the boiling water over the skin. Then rub salt into the scores after that.
Oven should be at 190 deg C. and cook 20 mins per pound plus 20 mins extra. The water and meat juices will make an excelllent bit of gravy too.
